Logline

The Bikini is one of the strongest symbols of social revolution: this documentary celebrates 60 years of its invention. It aims to approach the past overwhelming decades with humor and sensuality without losing track of the most important historical facts. It is going to be an exciting, well-humored trip through time as it investigates thoughts, politics and life style in modern society.
